Twitter is a household name, discussed for its role in national
elections, natural disasters, and political movements, as well as
for what some malign as narcissistic chatter. The first edition of
Murthy s balanced and incisive book pioneered the study of this
medium as a serious platform worthy of scholarly attention. Much
has changed since Twitter s infancy, although it is more relevant
than ever to our social, political, and economic lives. This timely
second edition shows how Twitter has evolved and how it is used
today. Murthy introduces some of the historical context that gave
birth to the platform, while providing up-to-date examples such as
the #blacklivesmatter movement, and Donald Trump s use of Twitter
in the US election. The chapters on journalism and social movements
have been thoroughly updated, and completely new to this edition is
a chapter on celebrities and brands. Seeking to answer challenging
questions around the popular medium, the second edition of Twitter
is essential reading for students and scholars of digital media.
